  • Ages 12 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female subjects (between ≥ 12 and ≤ 80 years old). Females may be of either childbearing or non-childbearing potential. All females of childbearing potential must be either abstinent from sexual intercourse or using adequate contraception and must also have a negative pregnancy test. Pregnant or nursing females or females intending to become pregnant during the course of the study must be excluded from the study.

  • The known presence or history of tuberculosis infection of the respiratory tract; untreated systemic fungal, bacterial, parasitic or viral infections; or ocular herpes simplex.
  • The presence or history of a clinically significant medical condition, other than asthma including laboratory result abnormalities that in the opinion of the investigator would put the subject at risk through study participation or would affect the study analyses if the disease exacerbated during the study.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Parallel Group, Multicenter, Double -Blind, Double-dummy, Placebo-controlled Phase 3 Study With Beclomethasone Dipropionate HFA at 100 μg, 200 μg and 400 μg Daily Doses Compared to Placebo in Mild or Moderate Persistent Asthma

Approximately 480 (120 per group) would need to complete the 12 weeks of treatments.

Read the detailed description

This is four arm study. Approximately 480 (120 per group) would need to complete the 12 weeks of treatments.In order to achieve that number of subjects, approximately 700 subjects will be screened randomized into the study.

A screening visit (Visit 1) will be followed by at least 2 weeks (14 days) placebo Run-in Period during which asthma subjects will wash out their daily inhaled corticosteroid and other medications and be assessed for compliance.

Study treatment period will be for a duration of 12 weeks with visits: Visit 2- Baseline Day 1, Visit 3 Day 21 (± 2 days), Visit 4 Day 42 (± 2 days), Visit 5 Day 63 (± 2 days), and Visit 6 Day 84 days (± 2 days).

Rescue Therapy: Short-acting beta agonists, Albuterol 90 μg/actuation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 400 µg per day Beclomethasone, 200 µg per day Beclomethasone and 100 µg per day Beclomethasone in people with Asthma, run by Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 45 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean Change from baseline trough (pre-dose and pre-rescue) FEV1 percent predicted at week 12 (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Jul 2019.
